She “debuted” “Jailhouse Tears”?!? A-hem. Lu’s been playing that one for a couple of years now… ❓

Or instead, maybe it was two fans fighting over whether or not Lu should play more “old stuff” this tour… 😉 😆

Does anyone know the release date for the Vinyl?

According to Amazon.com, it’ll be released the same day as the CD, October 14th.

Is Elvis Costello on the “demo” version of Jailhouse Tears?

Yeah, I’m intrigued by the “2” at the end of “Jailhouse Tears 2”. This suggests something more than just an alternate mix or take on the song. It almost sounds like additional verses or something. Can ya shed any light on this track in particular please, IJ?

And, I now have “Little Honey” on pre-sale order at both Amazon and at Best Buy. 😳 Yeah, I know, I am a hopeless addict, but I just have to have those extra tracks. And, at only $9.99 at each site, plus free shipping (I’m an “Amazon Prime” member), it wasn’t too hard to rationalize… 😉

I would much rather have them on a bonus disc instead of MP3’s. I know that demos will probably not have high quality audio, but I would still prefer something better than MP3 quality.

Here is the link:

Well, that’ll in large part depend on the bit rate of the MP3s. Granted, no MP3 will be as high quality as the original uncompressed WAV (or AIFF) file, but 256 kbps will be much, much closer than 128 kbps.

If anyone knows what the bit rate of this Best Buy tracks will be, please let us know. I will not pay for anything less than 256 kbps…

P.S. Thanks for posting the link, David.

I completely agree. There’s nothing worse than driving back and forth from different retailers playing a guessing game about which has the superior version of the album.

Yes, so to reduce carbon emissions and our dependence on foreign oil and, in turn, save the planet, please let us know exactly where we can get the “Little Honey” bonus tracks, IJ!

Anyway, I guess my point is I love every show and wish that there were more. So many songs I want to hear, but I’m never disappointed.

Yup, I’ve seen her 12+ times, and that’s still my take. Yeah, I’d love to see “Hot Blood” and / or “Side of the Road”, but every show is a blessing & I’ll take what I can get… 😉
